Thanks to dane for what is proving to be an educational thread for me. I was unaware that an older acoustic Guild would have originally shipped with a flatter fretboard.
Over the years I have altered my Guilds (all but one) to a faux-compound 12/20" radius (or close to it). Tighter curves makes fingering chords a wee bit easier, flatter fretboards are (a wee bit) faster for single note work. My preference is 12" at the nut and 20" at the saddle. If you are starting with a 12" radius, graduating to a flatter radius as you move toward the soundhole is not that hard to achieve during your next re-fret. The benefits are a flatter board allows for a lower action (we are talking thousands of an inch differences, but to some of us super-finicky types, every thousandth matters).
To the uninitiated (if any remain on this forum); if the radius numbers don't happen to make any sense to you, imagine the following: If you tie a 12" string to a pencil and draw an arc, all points on that arc are consistently 12" from the center of the circle, and the arc has a 12" radius. A 20" radius (20" string) would result in a larger circle, hence a flatter arc. By contrast the earth, with a radius of 3950 miles (pole to pole; 3963 miles if measured at the equator) appears really flat. In case you were wondering. ;~)
